Answer: Emerson uses irony to illustrate the unreasonable judgment that was made against Brown.

Irony is a rhetorical device in which what appears to be the case on the surface is radically different from what is actually the case. Emerson argues that slavery is an absurd institution because it forces the governor to hang a man who he believes to be of the most integrity, truthfulness and courage possible. The situation is ironic because you would expect a man so valued by the governor to be highly appreciated, and not condemned and killed.

Answer: 5/10 | I really liked your story! I think you should write more about how the sisters find the spellbook and where the evil jester goes when she is banished. You should also give all the characters formal names. You need to have more of a plot. Instead of saying "Then gradully the sisters secretly continue to send messages to each other and end up finding the location of the spellbook." You could say " When (Name) was banished, (Name2) sent her a message. 'I'm ready to find the spellbook', the message read." You need to add more dialogue. You should also check your spelling as I noticed several mistakes. You should add events leading up to the death of the king and queen. You could also give some information about the backstory of how the General's daughters are asked to come to the castle. I liked your story but overall you need

- Dialogue

- Formal names

-Plot, rising action, falling action

- Backstory

-Setting

-Spellcheck
